@MichaelEMann @LiveScience Nice article. The only part that made me wary was "It makes us dependent on buying oil and gas from *dangerous foreign nations*" - when it feels like the main reason there's danger in those foreign nations is the military brinkmanship of everyone else (including the US) trying to secure their interests in those oil and gas resources.
